Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. It would be better to have uric acid testing after gout attack unless the doctor has advised you immediate testing.
There are many tests we do for such patients however depending on age gender and history, the correct combination of tests can be advised. Kindly consult a rheumatologist.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Rheumatologists in Karachi and seek in-person advice.
